Juliette
was unique in that she came so close to Arizona without producing significant
precipitation. Juliette caused great wind and flood damage as she slammed
into southern Baja on the night of the 28th-29th as a category 4 hurricane.
After weakening over Baja California into a tropical depression, Juliette
entered the Gulf of California where she lingered for a couple of days before
dissipating. A few gusts reached 40 mph in the mountains near Tucson, but
no sustained tropical storm force winds were recorded anywhere in the state.
Only trace amounts of rain fell across southern Arizona from Juliette.
